My friend has been fruiting in a PMP and has noticed that his fruits are less mushrooms as much as they are massive hyphal knots. He believes the humidity is rather low (condensation, but not heavy dripping condensation) as expanded shale was used opposed to geolite.

He's considering casing now, as it seems it would be more supportive to cased cakes, but is wondering if perhaps there's another explanation to these strange growths. Having seen fatass pins, there is no relation to the two (these have nearly no caps, just fleshy warts). The species is malabar, and the spores weren't very old.

If anyone has any possible explanation as to what these fruits are, or if casing would indeed help, I'm sure he'd be glad to find out.

I have heard that the malabar speciese usually does produce rather large sized fruits, so it seems as though this could just be a natural characteristic of the srain under less-than-optimal humidity levels.

casings are much more productive in a cake-to-yield ratio than are cakes.

Good Luck
